Hidden Gems

This collection explores the rugged landscape and somber history of Ilha Grande. It features the ruins of the 19th-century Lazareto quarantine station and the Cândido Mendes high-security prison, which operated until 1994. Beyond the historical sites, the list highlights natural landmarks like the 15-meter Feiticeira waterfall and the Gruta do Acaiá, a sea cave where sunlight creates a fluorescent blue glow in the water. These sites offer a glimpse into the island's past as a penal colony and its unique geological formations.
